An Encore of Roses by S.T. Gibson

2.0

Basically supplants the rather reasonably good ending of the original book with some predictable and shallowly portrayed emotions and an extra sex scene, so that it lands at a similar, but weaker, spot.

Art's not bad, but I just don't care about the main dude. Giving him all the power he would later acquire in life is an interesting gimmick, but one that immediately saps all stakes from the conflict. Also what is up with treating "dragons" like idk, demons or some other weird thing. Strange choice, not for me.
